anybody want to buy Musicmaster/Duo Sonic reproduction bridgeplate?
I need to find out how much it's going to cost to get them plated before I know how much they'll cost.
Turns out that the manufacturer used Stainless Steel instead of the regular stuff which the chrome shop said isn't a good candidate for plating. I had them polish them instead. Here's the result.
LOL I just assume everyone is a cheap jerk like me. The company that made them for me gave me a great rate because they were kinda of a pain in the butt about it.

The word "moisty" has made me irrationally angry.
I think, I think that if you stamp on some of them "Made in the US" you might attract a certain strata of players who would like to help the local manufacturers

I will have one of the polished ones please.
Should we see how many island folks want them and send them over together to lessen the comedy tax impact and the distribute them from there or would that really not make a difference?

I thought about that with saying these weren’t legit Fender products too but it was too expensive. Would sharpie work.

.
I think for the size of the item and low value it wouldn't make any difference ? in fact a bulk order might prove more expensive....but I might well be wrong.

How do these differ from say a Toronado Bridge?
Toronado has holes for six Strat styled saddles and six in the bottom for through body stringing. These have nine holes in the back for the six strings and the three Tele style saddles.

Can you take a photo of the ass end of it? Does it have 9 holes out the back?

I hope you weren’t expecting a cherub’s bare red ass
Speaking of, did you notice the bridge is different in the Liz Phair Duo from one photo to the next?
